Running a website is sadly not free, so if you'd like to help us pay the bills around here, which eventually will help us remove the ads and improve the service provider, then your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

What you find here is a large section of Gameboy Color homebrew developed over the years, by homebrew I mean games/apps and other binaries for use on the Gameboy Color that are actually
developed from scratch (no hacks). Some of these will/may also work on the 'classic' Gameboy (but in most cases probably not).

It's a huge task to keep track of everything going on, so if you know of a title that isn't listed here, then please feel free to let me know.

Thanks!

COMMERCIAL GAME ATTEMPTS (NEVER PUBLISHED, MADE FREE TO PLAY BY THE DEVELOPER)

A fast paced, side scrolling Space shooter packed with hard to beat bosses and enemies. "It is far from complete but at least gives a idea as to what the game would be like. (Good luck finishing level 1! This is one of the hardest and Challenging GBC shooters out!)".

"We invite you to experience the weird and wonderful action odyssey that is 'FGB.' FGB is an unfinished action/adventure game on an epic scale for Game Boy Color. This is the final build of our unfinished action odyssey for Game Boy Color."

"Floracy" is a roleplaying game with elements of strategy and action games, in which the player breeds plantlike creatures for exciting animated combats. This demo was made public by the developer - no publisher was found for the game even after several attempts.

Join Rumble & Tumble on their Wild Adventure for the Game Boy Color. Travel through Forests, Deserts, Caves, Oceans and the heavens to defeat the Evil Thunder King and his henchmen to set the land free.

The developer gave up trying to find a publisher for this game. "Star Heritage is a quest game where player becomes the secret agent of Earthen Resistance who bumps into an unexpected accident to dive into the world of the distant future."

Developed by Russian R-Lab and on their website they wrote " Action game derived from BoulderDash style, but more advanced and more fun. Player explore different underground worlds of the ancient civilisations."

Made available in 2007 by Jason Emery, developer of Tyrian 2000. Publisher Symmetry Entertainment went out of business and the game went unreleased. A Gameboy Advance version was also made and had the same fate happen to it.

A double dragon-style beat-em-up. There are a couple of bugs with the game and it gets bloody tough to beat. Also I had to cut out the boss fight due to ROM and time limitations. There’s a few easter eggs dotted around, have fun!

Jet Pak DX (Version 1.00)By Quang

Lost, stranded on a strange planet. Light years away from home. You scramble your way home, planet hopping. Burning the fuel you collect in the spaceships you build, just to get that bit closer to home.

An original free game for Game Boy and Game Boy Color. Santa's Elves have spread presents for all the children of the world throughout Santa's North Pole Complex. As Santa, it's up to you to find the presents and save Christmas!

An identical clone of the old Q*bert arcade game. Shortly after the author published the game, something amazing happened...someone in the Gameboy developer community came across his version of the game and passed it on to Majesco Sales. Majesco had the rights to do the Gameboy Color version of Q*bert, and they contacted him to see if he'd be interested in enhancing what he'd done and making it a commercial product...
